crop production guide 2013 TNAU
Field preparation
•Thoroughly plough the soil because nitrogen fixation •2-3 times plough, soil turning, 1-2 harrowing to remove the weeds.
Sowing
• Bush type :85 kg/ha• pole type :30-40kg/ha• 2 seed / hill :Prasad et al.,1978 - increase yield – remove
one • Pole type : 120x30x20cm paired row • Bush type : 30x30x15cm (paired) hill, 30x30x 45cm plains
Precision farming techniques TNAU
Conti….• Inoculation – Rhizobium – Seeds – low NPK – high yield
COMPARE without inoculation – high NPK.(Kulkarni, 1979)• Treat the seeds with Trichoderma viride @ 4 g/kg or Thiram or
Carbendazim @ 2 g/kg of seed 24 hours before sowing to control fungal diseases. • Epigeal germination •Germinate at 8-10 days•Viability loss 9 months.

Nutritional requirement
•According to Tandon 1991, in tamilnadu•Hills180:125:100 NPK Kg/Ha. FYM 30ton/Ha•Plains 100:100:50 NPK Kg/Ha. FYM 12.5ton/Ha
• For French beans 135:135:135 kg NPK/ha is applied throughout the crop period. 75% of the phosphorous is applied in the form of straight fertilizer as a basal dose.

Micronutrient applications
• Zn, Mg - high quality, increase yield and ascorbic acid• Zn + B + Mo at 0.2% (jana and kabir, 1987) increase yield.
Growth regulator • GA3 50-200ppm increase vegetative growth.(prabhakaran et al., 2003)• PCPA @2ppm, L – naphthlyacetamide or B – naphtha acetic acid 5-
25ppm – prevailing temperature when fruit set
Irrigation
•Life irrigation – shallow root avoid excess moisture – 7-10days interval.•Early irrigation require – before bloom and pod
development.•Good yield in low moisture (chudhury, 1970)• 6 -7 irrigation during growth of plants.
Intercultural operation
•Clean inter space particularly 1st 4 week of plants.•After every irrigation - soil loosen – hoeing done•10 days after germination – require earthing up – for stability – next at 25 days.
Mulching • Grass mulching was useful to prevent moisture loos from the soil
and increase the root growth, nodulation, shoot and plant growth and also increased water use efficiency of legumes (gupta and gupta, 1983)• Black polyethylene mulch 50-micron (200 gauges) thickness also
used.Staking • Pole type – support – cane frames – wooden poles connect – by strings.• In row planting – 2m stick – each plant• Cross canes fixed vertical poles at a spacing about 40 cm
Crop rotation – Saini 1996
1. Maize – pea – French bean2. Cluster bean – cabbage - French bean3. Okra – cauliflower (mid) - French bean4. Sponge gourd – radish - French bean5. Bitter gourd – radish – French bean 6. Cowpea – French bean – Bittergourd 7. Amaranthus - French bean –cowpea8. Okra - French bean – tomato
Weed control
• Require 1 ½ weeks of weed free period after emergence to prevent crop yield reduction.(Zimdahl, 1980)•Uncontrolled weed – 69.7% reduce yield.(singh et al., 1984)• Pre-sowing application of Basalin @ 2 lit/ha is done to
avoid the weed problem for 20 -25 days.•Weeding is done at 30th day after sowing and again at
45th and 60th day depending upon the weed growth. Immediately after every weeding earth up is done.
Insect pests
Insects • Bean beetle • Bean aphids• Pod Borer• Red spider mite• Bean thrips• Pod borer• Pod Bug, • Stem fly
Scientific name • Epilachana varivestis• Aphis and macrosiphum sp.• Helicoverpa armigera• Tetranychus urticae• Thrips palmi• Maruca vitrata• Nezara viridula• Ophiomyia sp
Bean beetle or bean lady bird beetle
• Larva and adults feed all parts of the leaves (lower particularly)
Management
• Procure good seed• Remove or burn seed and pod• Spraying malathion or carbaryl 0.1%
Bean aphid
• Pods black substance, leaves twisting, shedding and curling.• Control by Entomopathogenic fungus, Fusarium pallidorosium Methyl
Demeton 25 EC @ 0.025% or Dimethoate 30 EC @ 0.06%
• Damage-both nymphs&adults-sucking cell sap-Black sooty mold develop.Spray Wettable Sulphur 50 WP @ 2 g/l or Propargite 57 % EC @ 2ml/l orFenazaquin 10 % EC @ 2 ml/l.
Red spider mite
Bean thrips: Thrips prefer to feed mostly on foliage, sometimes on fruit. Slightly infested leaves exhibit silvery feeding scars on the lower leaf surfaces, especially along the mid-rib and veins. In severe infestations, the leaves turn yellow or brown and dry on the lower leaf surfaces. Infested fruit is scarred and deformed sometimes discoloured.
Pod Borer• Larva Feeding holes are circular. Half of body hangs outside during feeding. Frass usually
present.
Pod borer, Maruca vitrataEggs are light yellow, have faint reticulate sculpturing. Larvae yellow, shining, have 6 rows of black spots running from thorax to abdomen., head is brown to dark brown.
• Spray Carbaryl 50 WP thrice at fortnightly intervals at @ 2 g/l. Dust Carbaryl 10 D @ 25 kg/ha.
Stem fly•Larvae mines through petiole
and eventually reaches the stem-root junction where it pupates. Feeding causes wilting of stem/whole plant
Root knot nematode (Meloidogyne spp)• Typical symptoms of nematode injury can involve
both above ground and below ground plant parts. • Foliar symptoms of nematode infestation of roots
generally involve stunting and premature wilting and slow recovery to improved soil moisture conditions, leaf chlorosis (yellowing).• Application of neem cake @ 1 ton/ha at planting to
control root knot nematode, Meloidogyne spp.
Disease
• Anthracnose • Powdery mildew• Rust • Leaf spot• Ashy stem blight• Bacterial blight• Bean mosaic
Scientific name
• Colletotrichum sp.• Erysiphe polygoni• Uromyces phasioli• Cercospora cruenta• Macrophomina phaseolina• Xanthomonas phaseoli• Aphid
Anthracnose • Dark brown or black sunken with reddish or yellowish margins appear, petioles, stems
and pods.• Spray the crop with Benlate 0.2% or Bavistin 0.2%
Powdery mildew • White powdery floury spot
develop on both side of leaf.• Defoliation also there.• Seed and soil born.
• Dusting with Sulphur dust as 25 to 30 kg / ha 10 to 15 days interval.• Karathane at 0.2 % contact
fungicide
Rust • crop rotation is important. • As plants begin to bloom, sulfur or
chlorothalonil can be sprayed weekly on snap and green beans only. • Do not apply chlorothalonil to lima
(butter) beans. • Wait seven days between spraying
and harvest when using chlorothalonil on beans, and 14 days on Southern peas
Leaf spot • primarily on the lower leaves of plants as irregular,
spots. Severe infection causes excessive leaf drop and stunting of the plant. Infection is worse during periods of extended rainfall, high humidity and temperatures between 75 to 85° F.
• Use disease-free seed for planting. Remove all debris in the garden after harvest. Do not plant beans in the same area for two to three years
Bacterial blight
• Transmitted by aphids,• Leaves ruffled, crinkled and mottled yellow
spots• Pods deformed
• Streptocyclin, plantomycin or agrimycin 100ppm
Ashy stem blight • Affected plant black sunken cankers on
seed lings• Small dark sunken lesion is appear first• Lesion spread rapidly entire stem fully
attacked• Disease is seed borne • It control by seed treatment ceresin.• Disease free seed can use
Common bean mosaic• It was spread by aphid• Leaves ruffled, crinkled, yellows
appear• Pods deformed and rough• Control by grow resist variety like
contender, kenducky wonder• Spray imidachloprid 1.5ml/li
Some other disease:• Leaf minor• Angular leaf spot.
Physiological disorder • Transvere cotyledon cracking – • Hypocotyl cracking – low calcium
Harvesting • Seed size, percent seed, dry matter content, alcohol insoluble solids• Ready to harvest 40 DAS• 2-3 weeks after flowering • Green immature pods are harvested for vegetable prupose• Harvest delay – yield increase – quality falls rapidly – fiber develop• Bush bean 2-3 picking, 3-5 picking for pole bean.• Dry bean harvest when pod are turned yellow.• For dry beans, the fully matured seeds are harvested by removing the
entire plant and threshing the pods after drying.
Yield • Green pods – 18-25ton/ha – bush bean• Green pods – 10-12ton/ha – pole bean • Dry pod – 2-2.5ton/ha• The yield of tender pods per hectare is 9 - 10 tonnes in bush type and • 12 – 15 tonnes in pole types.• The grain yield varies from 1.5 - 2.0 tonnes per hectare
Post harvest handling • Grading • Packing• Storage• Pods are shorted out immediately then damaged and broken pods are
rejected from the lots.• French bean highly perishable and rapid cooling after harvesting is
important (pre cooling) to maintain quality
Grading Green bean • Super – uniform shape, tenderness before development of seeds• Fancy – medium size, good texture, before bulging of pods - canning• Commercial Grade – large seed pod – dull colour Dry bean • Extra fancy• Fancy - processing industry• Extra standard - processing industry
Packing • Distant market - cardboard box, CFB and wire bound boxes• Local market - gunny bags or bamboo chips round baskets or
stick baskets and top is provided with cushening material like paddy straw or green grassesStorage • Store at 4 C in 90% RH
Seed production • Flowers – cleistogamy – self-compatible – self pollinated• Chance of cross pollination – (1.1%) – tropics – thrips also
Seed production • Isolation distance
foundation seed -50Mcertified seed -25M
• Rougingbefore flowering -Plant habit, height(bush&pole), leaf shape & colour and
disease. at flowering -Vigour and flower colour.pod developing stage -Pod shape, size, colour and seed borne disease.at maturity -Late flowring and maturity off type easily detected.
Harvesting, threshing and storage• Ripening stage – irrigation stopped• Pods turned yellow colour. May be ready to shatter.• Plants after harvest staked 7-10days for drying.• Seeds threshed by manually and mechanically.• Care should be taken when threshing because seed susceptible to
cracking.• Seeds cleaned and stored polythene container dry clean ventilated place.• Seeds viable two to three years.• Seed yield 12-18quintals / ha
